A lawn kept with the professional-grade Exmark Navigator, in 42″ or 48″, may be as close to perfect as it gets, thanks to its patented fill-reduction. The Navigator moves more air for better vacuuming and debris collection, with a larger-diameter blower. It is made for any landscape pro who wants more control, more responsiveness and less hand force. A higher blade tip speed slices grass into finer particles, and the center-discharge deck with two-sided trimming lets the operator control discharge accurately, keeping flower beds and walkways free of clippings. It does all this at speeds up to 7 mph. For more professional-grade machines, see the rest of Exmark’s zero-turn mowers.
